It's really not worth more than $10. Maybe less. It's vastly disappointing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthew Sorrels Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 Odd, Underscore is now claiming to be version 1.6. Though it's not available in my account history download links. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthew Sorrels Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 Underscore's big problem is the UI/Script/GUI doesn't really lend itself to being productive unless you are the guy that made it. SampleLogic instruments cover the same ground but are far more usable. Same with Output. But none of them are <$25. Underscore has such a long history (it was announced as being worth $1000 way back in the dark ages with more than one forum flamefest over that claim) but the instrument itself is now kind of dated. If you have to stay with the low priced Kontakt full instrument bracket I'd say anything by Rigid Audio or Audioifer will get you a far more usable instrument. SEQui2R might be available cheaply. The DRONAR stuff is very usable for underscore. CL-Projects instruments on Kontakt Hub are also very usable in this space even if they don't have all the arp features like you'd get in a SampleLogic/Output instrument. Perhaps this v1.6 version is better. The v1.5 version of Underscore is one of the most confusing Kontakt instruments. The sounds aren't bad, but if the GUI/script isn't very usable it's just too hard to get at the sounds. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simon Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 sigh - you posted about 2 hours too late for me @Matthew Sorrels I read the VI_control threads and took a punt, and yes it's the 1.6 version. another plug for the Rigid Audio stuff - lost of sounds for very little money. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mesh Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 Yeah, Rigid Audio/Audiofier have some very useable good instruments (i.e. Cinematrix). I've had SEQui2R for awhile now, but never really wrapped my head around it...should probably put it up for sale. Never had any SampleLogic stuff, but heard good things about them.

Tomgu Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 Anyone know how to download version 1.6 of Underscore? Or does it even exist..? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergio Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 How about the Aria Orchestral Bundle? Of course I'm mostly interested in the solo strings. It's cheap enough to stretch my budget a little and get it together with K12 Ultimate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Sorrels Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 I sent a note to VSTBuzz and they sent me a dropbox link for the 1.6 version of Underscore. I don't think I'll have much time to look at it though until later. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simon Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 (edited) just installed v1.6 of underscore but credits still say 1.5 so who knows Edited November 27, 2019 by simon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I'll grab Atheos first tho. I'd love to grab the Riffendium series when they go on sale later on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Sorrels Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 Morphestra 2 by Sample Logic It's what you really want vs Underscore. The new Underscore v1.6 version isn't really that much different. They added a few more wav files and some presets to use them. They also now include the manual and ARP presets they left out before, but it still expects you to edit the Kontakt instrument by hand to select things/etc. Morphestra 2 is a monster of a cinematic synth. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthew Sorrels Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 It still says v1.5 when you click on the credits (after clicking on Global Settings). But the file is different (binary compare) to the old one. Oddly enough almost all the instrument NKI compare the same, which means they aren't using anything different. So technically there may be no v1.6, since that would require them update every one of the NKI files and I'd imagine would be a huge amount of pain (which is why the whole way they designed this instrument is just bad). So maybe they modified just the (LOAD THIS PATCH FIRST).nki, forgot to up the version number and left everything else the same. Technically a handful of the instrument NKI have changed. ST - Sausage Sustains Swell.nki FX - Quickscratch.nki FX - White Falls.nki PR - Safeties Off.nki SY - Acoustic Saviour.nki And there are new ones for the new wav files: ST - Synth Staccato.nki GT - Acoustic Infinity Pad.nki GT - Real Mutes.nki FX - Pumping Noise Rise & Fall.nki PR - Infinite Cymbals Menu.nki PR - Infinite Shaker Menu.nki PR - Infinite Tamb Menu.nki PR - Split Snaps.nki PR - Synth Taiko.nki PR - Tom Clicks.nki SY - Cauldron.nki And one NKI was removed between 1.5 and 1.6 FX - Noise Riser.nki 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
